Stitching and cake

I have almost finished my Welsh Guards man, the white patch should have a bright light red, but in all my stash, I don't have the colour or anything similar, I had to finish him off, as the pattern had children standing in front of him. I have added a sewing machine, I have never in my adult life not owned a sewing machine. I now want to add other items for Kev and myself, I am really enjoying this project,

I have been baking, we watched Hairy bikers last week and they had a fantastic recipe for a ginger cake, which they said was very moist, so I went to their website and used the recipe, it does not look to great, but it is the best tasting ginger cake we have had.

I have found some seeds for wild strawberries for my garden, I hope to get some plants from this pack below, I will keep them on the corner of my desk, it's the sunniest spot in the house.
I have not alot planned for today, Kev is home so I won't get much done, tonight I'm with my friends, and hope to see how they got on with the small kits I gave them to do, I'm off to spend the day with Fliss and Sammy tomorrow, which is always fun.
